Did this video help you?

GetoverYourself: No question the P3 is clearer with less noise. Would like to see a night comparison. The P3 Pro will remain popular for a long time yet.

JIRADET Ponari: Gopro is good exposure, sky and land color is real.

Don Calip: GoPro is better

Photojunky's Drone Zone Vlog: just the fact that this topic is up for debate tells me a lot. You can send a much cheaper drone such as a Phantom 2 with a GoPro and get just as good video as a more expensive Phantom 4. One issue however would be the range. If you are shooting close by then you would not need to have the more expensive drone. Very interesting.

Randy Lam: gopro is good

Sôma Covers: Hi sir please can you show us how to instal the go pro on the dji phantom 3 please?

i QUAD: Just wondering why in all of the photos, the Phantom clips are taken closer up? Is it so they look better? Is there some bias in this review? Just askin?? I love the Phantom dont get me wrong.

Johnnie J: I was very surprised by the footage. I thought the gopro would win this one. They looked very identical but at the very end if you look at the tractor it is out of focus in comparison to the P3 Pro camera. It may just be a sharpening issue but to my eyes it looks as if it is almost out of focus as well as the trees in the foreground they look like blobs with no detail.

FireDisplay: But.. If you upload your GOPRO film into GoProStudio and do the settings like Protune.. Than you have the same contrast. Plus you can also use lenses on the gopro for better light.

JT Clement: I found this very helpful. I had considered trying to pick up the DJI pro camera and put it on my drone, but in my opinion, I just prefer the look overall of the hero 4 camera. And being that I prefer the sj5000+ image over the hero 4, it allows me to make my final choice, sj5000+ it is.

Wade Allemand: Nice comparison. The P3 looks better to me also. Hero footage looks like there was plastic wrap over the lens.

Atheos: The DJI camera suffers from more compression, aliasing and a lower dynamic range. Although the DJI colors are really nice, GoPro is still the better one.

Mose Laura: They got the same bitrate but the go pro hero 4 has so much better color management from what I've seen in videos. Especially in flat mode. What du you think?

I thought about upgrading my phantom 2 but maybe stick with it now..

Milan Tomin: Nice video mate, well done, cheers!

Danny Hays: Great video! Just an FYI. Yes the Go-pro does have the fish eye effect, especially when shooting in wide mode, (the only mode available when shooting 4k). That can be fixed in the Go-Pro app but it does the same thing as the camera you're comparing it to. It stretches out the right and left sides of the video. Look when you pan and the objects in the center of the view are not as wide as they are when they're near the sides. I can fix that with the Go-Pro footage using Sony Vegas Pro without that problem. You don't have that option with the camera on the Phantom 3. It's not a real issue when doing Arial shots, but if you were to hover at four feet and capture a row of people, The people near the sides would look twice as wide as the people in the center. I have the Hero 4 black and am looking into using a DJI Phantom 2 Quadcopter V2.0 with 3-Axis Zenmuse H4-3D Gimbal for GoPro Hero 4. Is the control of the chopper different than the control of the camera? In other words wouldn't I have to use the gopro app to control the hero 4 where you use the DJI app right?

Kevzky: Hey man nice video testing, btw did you fit the go pro on the same phantom drone or is the go pro compatible on the new phantom 3 pro?

airnamic: Thanks for the comparison !, because I do not like to have the Fishey effect , I find the P3 better .

EnVision: They both look good.... the go pro would make for a more expensive setup for a quadcopter but you can also use it for other things other than flying. But the phantom 3 is the better of two if uour just going for arial photography. Cool video it helps out.

Mark & Tae: Perfect comparison. I think the pole idea was pretty good. The last scene with the color adjustment of the P3 video was a great comparison.
